As you know, I'm a huge Replacements fan and will never, ever tire of their music, even though I'm sure I've heard some songs thousands of times by now.

This month Voyageur Press publishes a hardcover photo book that shows the band from 1979 through 1991. The Replacements: Waxed Up Hair & Painted Shoes: The Photographic History includes essays by Jim Walsh, author of 2007''s 'Mats oral history, All Over But the Shouting. It also showcases many images I've never seen before - and I say this as someone who, as a teen, would cut out every Paul Westerberg shot she could find and tape it to her notebook or bedroom wall.

Below, I have a few exclusive spreads from the book. It's on sale now.
